Why does a SQL statement run faster on the ECS than on ApsaraDB for RDS?

Last Updated: Jul 13, 2016

For the same simple query, the MySQL query time on ECS may be faster than that on the ApsaraDB for RDS, because it doesn’t require the network transmission time.However, this test doesn’t reflect the overall performance of ApsaraDB for RDS. The advantage of ApsaraDB for RDS is more obvious under high pressure and high concurrency.
